3-star superior hotel according to German hotel classification

When booking a family-run private hotel for the first time, guests want to be sure that certain quality criteria, amenities, and services fully meet their expectations before they arrive. To guarantee this and offer our guests an all-round pleasant stay, our Hotel Imhof has been classified as a 3-star superior hotel for decades.
The DEHOGA (German Hotel Classification) "star catalog" sets minimum and extra point criteria for all hotel areas—from arrival and check-in to rooms, dining, and event areas to leisure and online activities. This means you can be sure that you will want for nothing during your stay with us and that you can consider our hotel your "home away from home. "
Here you will find current offers for a short trip or a nature vacation in the Spessart Nature Park!

Bavarian Environment and Climate Pact

Across Bavaria, companies and businesses are successfully implementing measures to protect the environment and climate. The Bavarian Environmental and Climate Pact brings together companies that are committed to ecological sustainability in many ways. Both our Hotel Mainpromenade and our Hotel Imhof are part of this pact, and we are proud to play our part in preserving our environment.
Sustainable considerations form the basis for decisions and offerings in all areas of the company. This extends from regional purchasing through our "Frische aus Main-Spessart" (Freshness from Main-Spessart) action group, climate-friendly mobility offers such as shuttle services to/from the train station or for cyclists, reducing single-use plastic in rooms and in catering, generating energy and heat through a combined heat and power plant, to the complete utilization of food through our own homemade sausage. At Hotel Imhof, you can therefore be sure of enjoying a resource-saving and low-emission stay.

Freshness from Main-Spessart

Back in 2002, an Agenda 21 project in the district led to the creation of the"Frische aus Main-Spessart"(Freshness from Main-Spessart) action group, in which restaurateurs, producers, and direct marketers joined forces to offer and process fresh, ecologically valuable food from our region.

5 good reasons for "freshness"

1. Transparency in food production and processing
2. Short transport routes for greater freshness and less climate-damaging CO2
3. Strengthening our region
4. Preserving regional biodiversity
5. Preserving and shaping the local cultural landscape

One goal

Introduce guests to the special features of the district with selected regional dishes and at the same time strengthen local agriculture.
